1. The Appellant was charged with one count of theft. On 9th December 1998 she appeared before Stephen Smout Esquire in the Magistrate's Court at San Po Kong. She was convicted after trial and was fined $1,500.00.

2. The Appellant now appeals against conviction. She has lodged a Notice of Appeal against Conviction in the standard form but has written no ground of appeal thereon.

3. The Magistrate had prepared a very detailed Statement of Findings after carefully considering all the evidence. Suffice it to say that I am fully satisfied of the propriety of the conviction. The appeal against conviction is therefore dismissed.
